Chapter 685 After my husband passed the imperial examination, I became his second wife (13)

Mr. Sun's son Sun Ying, the young master Sun whose mother had high hopes and thought he would pass the imperial examination to become a scholar or pass the imperial examination and then marry a young lady from a wealthy family, got married recently. However, because he did not pass the imperial examination to become a scholar, he could not marry the daughter of his teacher or the county magistrate, and could only marry his mother's niece, who was his cousin, with grievance.

As a friend of Mr. Sun, although Mr. Lin had become much more distant from him in the past year, the relationship was not broken after all, so Sun Ying also invited the Lin family to her wedding. Mr. Lin went to the banquet, but Mrs. Lin and Lin Shichu did not go.

However, when Lin's father came back from the wedding banquet, he was angry and looked indignant.

"Master, why did you come back with this expression? Did others make you angry when you went to a wedding banquet?" Lin's mother asked her husband curiously.

Father Lin snorted and said, "Old man Sun boasted to me that his son got married, saying that his daughter-in-law is gentle and virtuous, and is a good wife and mother who takes good care of her husband and children. Then he asked me to control my daughter, saying that it is immoral for a girl to show her face outside and make love with a man, and that this is why my daughter can't get married! Bah! My daughter is fine, smart and beautiful, how could she not get married? No, she won't get married, she's marrying in!"

When Lin's mother heard what Lin's father said, she was immediately furious and said to Lin's father: "Mr. Sun is too nosy. What does my daughter Chu'er's life have to do with him? My daughter can do whatever she wants! But his son, his wife always said he was smart and would definitely pass the imperial examination and become an official in the future. But now look, he didn't even pass the exam to become a scholar. How dare his family say that my daughter is bad..."

"Master, since they dislike our Chu'er so much, you should stop associating with them in the future, so as to avoid being angry with their family!" Lin's mother said unhappily.

"Okay, I won't associate with them anymore!" Lin's father agreed immediately. He couldn't bear to say anything about his own daughter, so what right did Old Man Sun have to say? Chu'er didn't eat his family's food or drink his family's water!

The couple scolded the Sun family, but later on, Lin's father began to worry about Lin Shichu's marriage again, and asked Lin's mother: "Have you found any young man who is willing to marry into our family recently?"

Mother Lin shook her head with a sad face: "No, our Chu'er is so beautiful and capable, but all the men who come to her are unreliable. I would rather let Chu'er get married a few years later than let her be picky and marry a man who is inferior to her in every way."

Hearing this, Father Lin sighed and said, "Then let's take our time to look for him. There's no rush. Chu'er is still young anyway."

Lin Shichu was standing outside the door listening to her parents worrying about her marriage, and she felt as if her heart was being pulled. Lin's father and mother loved her very much and wanted to give her the best of everything, but they were powerless to do anything about her marriage, so they felt depressed.

When Lin Shichu heard them worrying about their marriages, he realized that he seemed a little unfilial.

The best way to solve their worries now is to quickly find a man with all the qualities required to marry into their family. That way they will feel relieved, right?

Although Lin Shichu knew that she should do this, how could she find a man that everyone was satisfied with to marry into her family at this time? She felt very embarrassed.

In the room, Lin's father and mother started discussing other things again. Lin Shichu did not disturb them but left quietly.

When she returned to her own courtyard, Qingxue suddenly came forward and reported: "Miss, Xuan Ling is back from outside and has something important to discuss with you. Do you want to see him?"

"Go ahead. Let him in." Lin Shichu said, remembering that Yue Lingxuan seemed to have been busy expanding the Lin family's business, so he asked him to come and see him.

Yue Lingxuan came in quickly. Lin Shichu took his people to the pavilion and asked the servants to move away. He did not speak to Yue Lingxuan until he could no longer hear the conversation.

Yue Lingxuan told Lin Shichu everything he had done. While helping the Lin family expand their business, he was also doing his own things in private. Lin Shichu knew about this, but did not stop him. Instead, he gave him a lot of help.

Yue Lingxuan did not appear in his true face at this time, but a face that was much inferior after disguise. However, even with his handsome and gentle face, coupled with his tall and slender figure, he still looked elegant and did not look like a servant at all, but rather like a scholar.

"Miss, Miss, why are you looking at me like that? The disguise on my face has faded?" Yue Lingxuan was reporting on his work when he noticed that Lin Shichu was staring at his face in a daze, so he quickly touched his face and asked.

Lin Shichu was called back to his senses by him and quickly said, "No, no, your disguise is intact, you are fine. I was just looking at you and suddenly had another good suggestion."

"What good suggestions?" Yue Lingxuan asked casually when he saw that there was no problem with his disguise.

Lin Shichu looked him up and down carefully. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the idea that just popped up in her mind made sense, so she smiled and said to Yue Lingxuan: "That is... I need to get married now, do you want to marry into my family?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Lingxuan was immediately choked by his own saliva and coughed until his face turned red. After a long while, he finally stopped coughing and asked in disbelief, "What did you just say? Let me marry into your family?!"

"Yes, but if you don't like me, you can just pretend, in name only. I just need a husband to marry into the family so that my parents can feel at ease. There is no suitable candidate around me, and you are the most suitable one. Of course, in return, I can help you if you want to avenge your family." Lin Shichu explained to him slowly.

Yue Lingxuan opened his mouth. His mind was a little confused. He could clearly understand every word Lin Shichu said, but his confused brain was unable to receive the correct information when they put together the whole thing.

After being at a loss for a while, Lin Shichu saw that he seemed to be out of his mind, so he couldn't help but clapped his hands, finally calling his soul back, and asked him again: "What do you think of my proposal? I think this is beneficial to both of us. I need a nominal husband, and you need the help of the Lin family. After a few years, when your family's revenge is avenged, you can still divorce me. This will not affect your future life at all. After all, you married me with this face now. After you restore your identity and no longer disguise yourself, no one will know that you were once my son-in-law."

Yue Lingxuan lowered his eyes and denied, "What revenge? I don't have any revenge to take."
